A safe and risk-free learning environment
Bringing together multi-disciplinary healthcare professionals to rehearse both common clinical scenarios and emergency critical incidents is a significant part of simulation practice. Skills repetition in simulated practice reduces the potential for error and enhances skills performance when it really matters.
SimMan Essential injects realism into scenario-based training to further enhance and contextualize learning objectives in preparation for real patient encounters in a safe and risk-free environment.

A commitment to helping save lives
Laerdal is dedicated to helping you meet your educational goals
From simulators and scenarios to installation and training, our products and services are designed to help you achieve the optimal training environment.
At Laerdal, we are committed to helping save lives. That is why simulation is a crucial component of our healthcare education portfolio. Our flagship SimMan Simulators build upon decades of experience in the field of medical simulation.
Running simulation with EMS or military teams?

For specialist training with military and EMS teams, we recommend SimMan Essential Bleeding which incorporates an internal bleeding system. This offers unique benefits for field-based trauma training.
SimMan Essential is robust and reliable so it will withstand the rigor of extensive use in field-based simulations.
